I linked the original Tweet from M2. So shoot me! Literally you are over reacting and seem to be going through some kind of personal crisis. I really appreciate but what you do for the scene but your superiority complex is not needed.

Yes, you made the thread, but that actually has nothing to do with it. What I disputed was your post where you posted my translation; you linked to the original post M2 made but you didn't credit the person who translated it, and that was me. The sensible thing to do was to reply with "oh, sorry, my bad", not "just post your crap on the forums instead lol". Seriously, this is not hard to understand. It just shows you have a lack of empathy.
Since you feel the need to make light of a serious situation, a website I was partnered with abandoned me barely 3 weeks in, and I was not paid nor compensated in any fashion for hundreds of hours of esports work. I'm well within my right to address it. There's nothing I wrote in that twitlonger which is out of line, because it's the reality of the situation. I am not obligated to continue doing shmup news the rest of my life, this entire forum doesn't have my audience or on-topic focus. And as
thrilling as it is having game developer #2534 and publisher #3445 clout chasing me for exposure, actually getting recognition myself while limited to this genre is difficult and it's a serious problem both for me, devs, publishers, and the genre as a whole.

Getting into a spat when I was just winking and being playful you taking all of this way too seriously and letting your emotions get the best of you. Take a deep breathe relax and enjoy the scene
Maybe I'd be able to "relax and enjoy the scene" more if I didn't have have to put up with continual drama, like clowns claiming I'm plagiarising people's translations. Because, you know, that's a totally realistic thing to say to someone who has been doing shmup news for 11 years. You have no idea what kind of inside drama I'm subject to on a frequent basis. Don't worry though, I've been enjoying the scene for years without participating frequently on the forum and I'm glad I gave people a way to do so.
I haven't actively browsed/used this forum in many years and it's no longer an accurate representation of me.
I have retired from genre-specific content creation after 13 years, but I'll always love this little genre in my own personal way.
